It was ok. Had some moments that were intentionally (or unintentionally) hilarious due to the cheesiness factor. The Book of Eli was much, much better.

Add Daybreakers to the 'sucked donkey balls" list. That was easily one of the worst movies I have ever seen. They should have stopped making vamipre movies at The Lost Boys.

I didn't expect much of a story, but there was really no story to this movie at all. My warped opinion is...if you are going to make a violent movie with little to no story, at least have some clever kills. This thing was lame and never had anything entertaining outside of the granny scene.

Not a whole lot to explain, but there is a scene where a "sweet old grandma" turns out to be one of the possessed or angels. It is pretty funny.

It's featured in the theatrical trailer. Just go a search on YouTube.

I'm going to give Legion a shot even though I probably won't like it considering Wes and I seem to have the same taste in movies. We are the only 2 people on here that weren't impressed by Inglorious Basterds lol.

I could have told you it sucked from the moment in the commercial where the ice cream man turns into a lame demon with long arms and legs or something. Not even a great weed buzz was able to make me think anything other than, "this is so fricking lame".

It was a commercial I saw on TV. It shows two dudes with guns staring at an ice cream truck w/dude. The dude is a skinny middle-aged/elderly type. One of the guys says something like "He doesn't look so bad", then the ice cream guy changes into some spider thing and charges them.

Yeah, this movie never sparked my interest to want to go see it. So, I haven't :)

Book of Eli was very good though.

Well it wasn't totally horrible but I probably shouldn't have paid to see it lol. It was probably 3 steps above a sci-fi channel movie but nothing great. Dennis Quaid was probably the main thing keeping it from being a Sci-Fi channel flick.

Having Lucas Black (QB from Friday Night Light's movie) as Dennis Quaid's son was dumb. It's believable that they are related by looks but Black never shakes his southern accent. There was definitely some unnecessary sappy dialogue. The part where Charles S Dutton and Tyrese cried together was too much. What was up with Gabriel's angel wear? He looked more like a medieval warrior than an angel.

I'll probably finally go see Avatar tomorrow. I'm iffy on checking out Mel Gibson's new flick so the next movie I will probably go see after Avatar will be the Wolfman.

The half retarded son was not necessary at all and the character was annoying....and I agree that the Gabriel character looked like a medieval angel..lol

Then Legion must be the worst movie ever because the book of Eli was garbage.
